This document outlines the agenda for an IECP reading class. The agenda includes discussions on idioms, a vocabulary quiz, and a newspaper presentation. For the newspaper presentation, students will answer questions about HIV/AIDS transmission and treatment. The document also details an assignment where students will read about and discuss the Lapita people's exploration of the Pacific Ocean, and their ranked society's potential role in driving their exploration beyond what earlier groups had achieved. Students are assigned related homework due on Monday or Tuesday depending on their class.
